if you use a dropbox account and the same name for the document then you will not need to replace the link here

Editing the link in the topmost post does not seem that hard a maintenance chore.
Including the version in the document name is a 'nice idea' so that people can tell at a glance if the document version is different than the one they already have.

Because this PDF document is a summary of what is already in the sticky, a lot of people download the images without the PDF document.

The images have each had many hundreds of downloads, and that is just the images I can see. Others have posted images too, which also have downlod counts I cannot see.

Including the fact that people who debrick regularly (developers) use images they already downloaded before, there may have been thousands (certainly more than one thousand) successful debrickings by now.

And this PDF file is so new, it is interesting to see that versions of it have been downloaded over 200 time JUST from the mirror (plus more from the original site).

Amazon knows we are helping them (I have spent hours on the phone with their "deep" techs discussing firmware and debricking issues). They tolerate our firmware images because they know we are helping them, but their legal staff never sent the written permission I had requested.

Anyway, let's not add roadblocks to newbies in the form of suggestions in the "poll". It is already hard enough, with needing to create an MR account to post here.

I included "0" as a choice for that reason.
I just wish I could have added that: 156,000-9 "No comment" entry.

I have done a screen saver hack on my Kindle but can't update the firmware now and can't reset it so am going to use the recovery images.

My Kindle basically works and is not bricked in any way really. What I would like to know is....

Could I start at page 8 of your guide 'Place New Main partition and Copy it'?

I can get into diags mode easily using Windows in the normal way, and presumably my kernal is fine. I'm just missing a few screensaver files, and feel the best option is just to try and get back to a factory default as it were.

From page 8 could I just follow the instructions and copy over mmcblk0p1-k4-401 as this is correct for my Kindle (not the touch image file as in the guide).
